This clip caught everyone's attention, with half-a-million views in a day and coverage on the Daily Mail and the Huffington Post. It features the Ohio State University Marching Band during a halftime performance, doing arcade and classic video games tribute dances.

The band attempted to recreate gameplay sections from The legend of Zelda, Halo, Pokemon, Tetris, Super Mario Brothers, Pac-Man and many others. The commentator even announces that the band is “saving our heroes from the forces of evil,” who in this case were represented by Nebraska state players.

The game in question was Ohio State versus Nebraska, which took place on October 6, on the Ohio Stadium, Columbus.

The Ohio Buckeyes' marching band call themselves TBDBITL, which is short for ”The Best Damn Band In The Land." Approximately 225 members of the band were playing, FunnyAndSpicy informs.
